[Privoxy-users] forward-override based on user-agent tag does opposite of what it should

[Synan B]

I forgot to mention several things (as FYI):

1. User Agent Switchers do not work on https sites - the browser sends 
the original string, so the spoofed agent must be hard-coded to the 
browser, such as
general.useragent.override  some-string  in the case of Firefox about:config

2. Firefox works as expected after hard coding the User Agent string and 
entering the Privoxy IP in the browser's proxy settings for http/https. 
Opera, for example does not, because there's no such setting - it's 
supposed to read the user environment.

3. I have systemd.resolved disabled (I use dnsmasq + dnscrypt-proxy) so 
maybe that's why environment settings for https proxy don't work. I'll 
have to check that.

4. The best solution I can think of is to use a separate browser (with 
everything properly configured) when I want to go through Tor - hence my 
FOLLOW-UP QUESTION in the previous email.

Thank you & Regards.
